[Elecraft] k3, HRD, and signaLink USB problem

[Slava Baytalskiy]

Interesting coincidence is that i just finished hooking up my K3 to the Signalink USB and HRD. Like 11 minutes ago.
The cable i use has 3 plugs: line in, line out and PTT.
I didn't connect the PTT at all because i'm using that jack on the K3 for my foot switch.
So HRD keys the radio via CAT. Works fine.
